Robertson completed a stunning comeback from six frames behind

Neil Robertson completed a stunning comeback to deny qualifier Martin Gould a first ranking quarter-final and earn a last-eight clash with Steve Davis.
The Australian world number nine trailed 6-0 early on and 11-5 overnight against the former croupier ranked 46.
But the blond left-hander rattled off five frames in a row to make it 10-11 before Gould edged a nervy 22nd frame to move within one of an upset win.
Robertson held his nerve though to take three in a row for a 13-12 victory
Last year's semi-finalist will renew Crucible acquaintances on Tuesday with Davis, who he hammered 10-2 in the first round last year.

It was a heartbreaking conclusion for Englishman Gould, who knocked out former finalist Nigel Bond in qualifying and beat Hong Kong's Marco Fu in the first round proper.
He surged into a 6-0 lead on Friday with some stunning snooker and after Robertson reduced his deficit to 6-2, Gould took the second session 5-3 for a commanding 11-5 overnight lead.
But he did not manage a break over 30 in the final session until the final frame, when a run of 40 made the early running.
But Robertson, who had knocked in breaks of 64 and 112 to launch his fightback, made a cool 52 to edge in front before sealing victory.
